2023 Map of Nogal Peak

About this map

White Mountain Wilderness and Lincoln National Forest dominate this high-altitude landscape in New Mexico, where the terrain is defined by dramatic elevations reaching to Lookout Mountain and Argentina Peak. The map documents a complex network of seasonal water sources and springs vital to this arid environment, including Turkey Spring, Devil Spring, and the unique Blue Hole Pond. A sophisticated system of backcountry trails, such as the Crest Trl and Doherty Ridge Trl, connects various canyons and ridges, illustrating the recreational and conservation management of the region. Notable landmarks like White Horse Hill and the headwaters of the South Fork Rio Bonito provide specific points of interest for navigating the deep drainages of Tanner Canyon and Rattlesnake Canyon near the boundary of Lincoln Co and Otero Co.
